The tool to import from WU is built into WeeWX. It is called wee_import. There may be an update for it though that is not part of WeeWX....not sure. I've actually never used it.
I don't know what the data limit is nor how much you need to import. I suppose you could do it in chunks if necessary. You'll never have to pay even after a year. The API key that you get as a contributor is just limited per day to 500 queries and 10 times per minute. Don't ask me to explain that. That is what I read and I don't have more details. I'm sure that you'll learn more as you learn to work with the wee_import. You should be able to grab all of your history. It may take a while but I don't see why it wouldn't be possible.
